Commas
Hi.
Why there are so many comma's in:
'In a statement issued to the BBC, Press TV's newsroom director Mr Hamid Emadi said: "We asked Ofcom if Press TV Limited did not have control over the broadcast, why was it getting fined, if it did have control, why would the licence be revoked?'

Does it make sense?
Thanks!
